While millennials are optimistic about homeownership, many expect help in order to make their dreams a reality. Of Canadians 18-34 who are considering buying a home, 37 per cent expect help from a family member or friend.

"The dream of homeownership is very much alive in the hearts and minds of millennials,” says Phil Soper, Royal LePage president and CEO. “The current state of demographics bodes well for the housing market for years to come.”
